​The team for the 10 mile+ hike. In the background the main reason for my travel - Goat Trestle Bridge. The largest curved wood trestle bridge in the world. Over 2 football fields wide and almost 1 field deep built in some of the most difficult terrain. The trestle bridge completed in 1919 and was part of the "impossible railroad" 11 miles of track in 12 years along with the main trestle there are several other with 17 tunnels. A magnificent display of engineering, built when men were men.

​Day 3

Borrego Springs, Galleta Meadows Metal Sculptures placed randomly in the middle of the desert. All metal with incredible detail and a must see if you are ever in the area.

​Day 4

Annual stop at Slab City. Run down Painted Canyon to trail and a quick hike to the end. After dark super narrow canyon run looking for the ideal camp spot.

​Day 5

Headed to Hidden Springs trail head for a little hike. Turns out to be a strenuous 7 miler with some but with incredible views as a bonus.
